x86/paravirt: add pte_flags to just get pte flags
Add pte_flags() to extract the flags from a pte. This is a special case of pte_val() which is only guaranteed to return the pte's flags correctly; the page number may be corrupted or missing. The intent is to allow paravirt implementations to return pte flags without having to do any translation of the page number (most notably, Xen).
